The day before race day…woohoo! 🎉

Join us at Elwood Beach just before 7am for a light and easy session to get race-ready. We’ll start with one lap of the bike course, followed by a short run off the bike, and finish with a refreshing swim in the bay. All efforts will be easy— just enough to keep the body primed for Sunday!

Afterward, we’ll set up the TA Taj (Tri-Alliance Tent) — your squad hub on race day. This is where we’ll hang out, get ready, and store our bags.

Make sure to bring everything you need for the session. Since we’ll be riding on the road, pack your lights, phone, sunglasses, and helmet. Wear whatever you’re comfortable riding and running in, but most athletes opt for their trisuit for an easy transition between activities.

And remember: nothing new on race day! If you’ve got gear to test, this is your final chance. See you there! 🚴‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏊‍♀️

Don’t let race day stress you out—stay organised with our Comprehensive Triathlon Race Day Checklist, designed to ensure you’re ready to race with confidence. We’ve even created a mobile-friendly version so you can tick everything off as you go.

Head to the Tri-Alliance website to access the full checklist and make sure nothing gets left behind. Trust your preparation, follow the plan, and focus on enjoying the race—Tri-Alliance has you covered! 🏁

Success on race day starts with smart preparation and a clear mindset. Here are our top five tips to ensure you’re ready to shine:

1. Fuel Wisely – Stick to the nutrition plan you’ve practiced, and don’t try anything new. Stay hydrated and keep your energy topped up throughout.
2. Gear Check – Double-check your equipment the night before: bike, shoes, goggles, and race essentials. Lay everything out to avoid last-minute panic.
3. Focus Your Mind – Visualise your race, break it into segments, and remind yourself why you’re here. A positive mindset will carry you through.
4. Pace Yourself – Start steady, race smart, and save something for the finish. Stick to your plan and avoid being influenced by others.
5. Recover Right – Celebrate your effort, refuel, and take time to stretch and cool down post-race to set yourself up for faster recovery.

Stay calm, trust your preparation, and give it your all. You’ve got this!

When you stand at the start line, there’s only one person to answer to: yourself. The Mirror Test is simple—have you done the work? Have you prepared as best as you could for the race ahead?

It’s not about comparing yourself to others; it’s about knowing you’ve held yourself accountable and done everything within your control to be ready. Look in the mirror and ask: Did I give it my best?

Race day is your chance to show up for yourself and execute what you’ve worked so hard to build. Win or lose, succeed or stumble, the effort you’ve put in is what truly counts. So, give it everything, and race with pride knowing you’re the best version of yourself on the day.

Remember, the mirror doesn’t lie. Let’s make it proud! 🏆
